Paper is made from plants.

It's said to be made of a glass-like substance.

It's based on that one mantis that pretends to be a flower. Only reversed. Its a flower pretending to be a bug.

The Pokemon is the seaweed. It carries the anchor around with it.

Arcanine is a fur animal that is pure fire.

Not quite reversed. It's based on an orchid mantis combined with the orchids that mimic insect reproductive organs. So it's the latter, using the former as its body shape.

Kartana is like metallic origami, I suppose the Grass represents the paper.
UB-01 is a glass jellyfish. Glass isn't a perfect fit for Rock but it's the closest type.
Lurantis is an inversion of insects disguising themselves as flowers. It's a flower that disguises itself as an insect.
Dhelmise is basically a seaweed kami. The anchor is just what it's growing on and what it lugs around as a weapon. Similar to how Conkeldurr hefts concrete pillars without being Rock type.
Rockruff is the only questionable one but it's no worse than say, Growlithe.

>Grass/Steel
Origami monster
Sharp as steel, pliable as paper
Paper is made from trees

>Rock/Poison
Glass-like substance. Crystalline in appearance.
Fanart makes the mistake of depicting it as a slimy creature when it's really a Japanese fishbowl made out of meth.

>Mantis that isn't a bug
It's like a reverse Katydid. Living plants in Pokemon games aren't weird.

>Anchor that isn't steel
The anchor isn't the Pokemon, just like Farfetch'd leek doesn't make it grass or Flabébe's flower doesn't make it grass. The Pokemon is the seaweed, grasping onto whatever wreckage it can find.

>Fur animal that is pure rock
Riolu is born a pure fighting type and grows Steel typing in it. How is a Shar Pei (the sand skin dog) pup that grows into a wolf with similar skin and toughness any less different?

Then Palossand shouldn't be part ground because its body is a ghost and the sand isn't part of that.

UBs are from an alternate dimension so they give fuck all about normal typing looks for the most part.

Lurantis is a plant mimicing a bug like Sudowoodo to trees in gen 2.

The Seaweed is the pokemon.

You can't make an anchor out of wood you retards. Wood floats.

>>29973062
It's not just a pure psychic, it's psychic and an empty type slot to represent the emptiness of space.
>>
>>29972665
I don't really care for Ultra Beasts. But really had my hopes on UB-01. I wanted it's typing to be Water/Psychic or Water/Normal. I really like jellyfish that's why. But it's current typing makes sense. You should read it's PokeDex Entry

Lurantis being part Grass just makes me mad. Like why..?! Why couldn't she be Bug/Fairy. Look at the other three Mantis Pokemon, Bug/Flying, Bug/Steel, and Bug/Grass. You can't ship Lurantis with Scyther and Scizor. And she's just in the shadow of the better grass Pokemon this region, *cough* our goddess Tsareena.

I feel like it's gonna be a thing that they do with the upcoming Pokemon. Is to make you guess in a way about what their type is gonna be. Example take a StarFish, and make it a pure Psychic Pokemon, without giving it the water Typing.

I dont know where people are getting wood from. It looks like a rusted anchor to me and the seaweed gives it its grass typing.
>>
>>29972665
Do you want it to be Fur type or something?
>>
I still feel like the UB-04s got their type swiped (conspirancy level Venomoth-Butterfree). But Grass/Steel sounds so better to giant bamboo, and Steel/Flying to Origami-Plane.
>>
>>29972665
I remember in some art and text descriptions showing that Rockruff's "coat" is actually, well, rocks. Instead of brushing or combing them, a trainer was polishing his Rockruff with a rag. Their "fur" is actually mostly solid.

>UBs
They're lovecraftian abominations, they're not supposed to make sense
>Lurantis

The seaweed is the pokemon, hence the grass typing. It just happens to be carrying an anchor around with it
>Lycanroc
I'm at a loss there. I realize there's a collar of rocks around his neck, but besides that he just looks like a regular dog. Should be normal or normal/rock, dark/rock for edgewolf
>>
>>29972665
>Kartana
Grass because it's made of paper. Leaf Blade
>Nihilego
Rock because it's glass, which is crystallised sand
>Lurantis
You're literally retarded for still not getting this but; an orchid mantis is a real life bug that pretends to be a flower to hunt. Lurantis is a flower that pretends to be an orchid mantis. It's a reversal of the orchid mantis theme
>Dhelmise
It isn't the anchor, it's the seaweed. It just uses the anchor to attack so it gets the offensive boost of Steel (ability) without the defensive because the anchor isn't part of its body
>Rockruff/Lycanroc
Game Freak is dumb
>>
>>29972665
>Grass is their equivalency for being made out of paper. Steel because it cuts.

>Rock seems to be their equivalency for being made out of glass. Poison because it's toxic

>Rock dogs clearly have rock bits in their fur.
>>
>>29972665
>anchor that isn't steel
1. The actual pokemon is a spirit that is manipulating seaweed as its body. The anchor is not a part of its body whatsoever. Saying that Dhelmise should be steel is like saying that Farfetch'd should be grass because it's holding a leek.
2. Its ability actually gives it steel STAB in addition to its ghost and grass types, so if you were worried about that, don't be.
>>
>>29973309
In what way does that convey any of the physical qualities of glass?

>>
>>29973680
If you could only pick one type like in UB-01's case because it needs room for poison, then rock is a good stand in for glass. But as an answer to the general question of what type would I make a Pokemon made of glass, I'd go with ground/electric for this:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulgurite
>>
>>29973984
See, I think of Rock/Electric for fulgurite (yes I have a Fakemon called Fulgurmite but) because of how it easily breaks to Fighting, Steel, and Ground. Ground is more durable, but I view Rock (and glass) as fragile because of all its weaknesses

>>29972665
Solgaleo is seak to fire and Lunala is weak to clouds
>>
>>29973294
>trusting corocoro
>>
>>29973111
Should Sandile and Torterra also be Water-Types? I'm definitely happy with the unique Fighting/Ice.

Comfey pisses me off, though. Just like Flabébé. I understand that they're only carrying their flowers, but they have heavy enough ties to grass that no one would have questioned it. At least the three non-Waters I mentioned are all dual-typed. Why omit it on purpose just for another boring pure type?
>>
>>29974171
The filename for Necrozma on the official site has "3rd legendary" in it. Game Freak did not fucking try
>>
>>29973062
Psychic is the type of the mind and perception. Prisms show how pure light truly is, it basically "illuminates" light. A prism should be Psychic type.
>>
>>29974293
>bait
Bait.
>>
>>29973062
It has prisms on its arms but the Pokemon itself is something else.

>>29973111
Mexican wrestling is real, which is why Hawlucha is fighting.

American wrasslin' is mostly showmanship, Incineroar plays the "villain" for that (which is what a 'Heel' is) hence Dark typing.

Owl Pokemon loses flying type because extinct owls of Hawaii were mostly land birds

Lei Pokemon isn't the flowers, it carries them.
>>
>>29974202
>Two of the very first pure Fairy-types are small creatures that carry flowers around for their whole lives

I don't mind less conventional typings, but I honestly don't see how this is any different than Sewaddle and Leavanny sewing clothing out of leaves. Florges is basically the same thing as plant cloak Wormadam.
>>
>>29974384
>Mexican wrestling is real

It's more real to them and that's about the extent of it.
>>
Solgaleo has a steel-hard body and psychic abilities, including a fucking third eye, how do people think its typing does not make sense. Dark type is Evil type in Japanese, lunala is not evil. Shadows and actual darkness have always been associated with ghost types.
>>
>>29973181
If they're not literally the animals they're based off, why do you think it should be water type?

Do you honestly want another fucking fire/fighting type? Fire/dark is far more interesting.

The website says that palossand literally adds sand to its body, as in it becomes a part of his body.

Ub 1 is rock because its body is made out of a glass like substance. Almost like a crystal and poison because it is a jellyfish.

Kartana is grass because it is like paper and paper is made out of wood. Furthermore if he wasn't quad-weak to fire, the world would end

Lurantis isn't bug because it is like a reverse flower mantis instead of being a bug that resembles a flower, it's a flower that resembles a bug. Also plant Pokémon resemble creatures all the time. Why not an insect

Dhelmise is not steel for one simple reason, it is possesed seaweed. If it was a steel type that would indicate that the anchor was part of its body. It isn't. The anchor is just something it likes to use as a weapon. Farfetch'd isn't a grass type just because it holds a piece of leek. Also it has metal worker because it excels at using the anchor as a weapon

Sand is literally Ground-type though. So it should be Ground/Fire then.

Sand can either be Rock or Ground by Pokemon standards. Sand-Attack is Ground, while Sandstorm is Rock. They probably thought Rock was more appropriate for Nihilego since it's supposed to be crystalline.
>>
>>29972665
It's made of paper which is made from wood hence Grass
It's made from crystal which has always been tied to Rock, still pretty unexpected though
It's based on an actual species of plant that evolved to look like a bug to scare off other bugs but the joke is that the plant is actually alive so it's a plant pretending to be a bug pretending to be a plant

I'd tolerate any number of dumb looking types if they'd just be creative about it instead of releasing clones of old pokemon that don't even have the stats to take on roles the old ones couldn't.

there should never be a pure grass type released again
releasing the anchor alongside decidueye was a huge dick move, and they've both got that shitty stat spread that makes them compete with the wisp tanks from gen 6

Nihilego and Kartana are cool simply for being unique type combos

That's the whole point. Fomantis = Faux Mantis. As in "not really a mantis, but trying to pass as one"

It's ability is like a triple stab. It is a Ghost/Grass/Steel type, but it lacks steel weaknesses. In-game, this could he because the actual pokemon is just using the anchor, it isn't the anchor itself.

Really? Pokemon have been "real animals, but colored different" since gen 1. Growlithe doesn't have any literal fire on his body. Neither does Vulpix. Most water pokemon are just aquatic animals. And other than Rotom, I don't recall a single electric type whose body is literally made of electricity.

>what is a wooden anchor and wooden steering wheel doing thinking it's a Grass type!?!? Must be the not grass algae attached to it

I'll give you Rockruff, Nightruff doesn't even have any rocky features and doesn't get a type change. Zero sense

>Mexican wrestling is real
Pic related.

>...which is why Hawlucha is fighting.
WROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG.
Dark type aka Evil in nip.
Fighting aka Hero in nip.

Evil wrestler is a heel that uses dirty tactics to win.
Hero wrestler is a face that fights valiantly.

Also, it could be a bug. Stunfisk is a fish that isn't Water. Ponyta is a mammal that isn't Normal. Why can't there be a bug that isn't Bug? If Bug is a bug's base typing like Normal is for mammals, then it can be overwritten if there's a strong type affinity.

> The Pokemon is the seaweed. It carries the anchor around with it.
>>
Nihilego is Rock because glass is made out of sand, which is technically minuscule rocks. Dhelmise is the seaweed on the anchor, not the anchor itself. Lurantis is based off of a mantis that camouflages as a flower, but reversed. The dogs are just typings because rock/normal would be a really dumb typing. Idk about that UB tho
>>
Ok, according OP's logic every Water Pokémon must be made of pure water... First time they do a decent design Rock Type and you guys complains. Fuck off

Please learn words that originate your favorite Pokemon's names. I say this out of love.

That is clearly a wooden anchor

Complain to gamefreak for not creating a 'plant' type instead of going full retard.

I think lurantis is this. At the end.

>>29985184
If you're so smart, explain why a paper Pokemon is Grass type if not because paper comes from plants?
>>
>>29984025
And all the pokemon made of sand are ground type
>>
>>29972806
By why would an orchid want to seem like a bug? They share like half of their weaknesses. Did gamefreak look over their previous interesting ideas and forget the use of mimics like sudowoodo?
>it's a bug.
>I'll hit it with a fire/flying move

>>29985529
What Pokemon even are there that are made of sand? You have the Palossand line and...?
>>
>>29985352
It's not a wooden anchor, the algae itself is the monster, that's why it gets an ability that boosts Steel moves. It's not part of it, it's using the anchor itself to attack.
>>
>>29984603
A simple way to find out is to check if it's on the Bug egg group. Gligar, Trapinch and Skorupi belong to that group and none of them is Bug-type.
>>
>>29985529
If you temper sand into glass it isn't sand anymore
The rock type resistance to fire represents the change
>>
Kartana is the origami representation of a grass-type pokemon, obviously.

Alternatively, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kusanagi
>>
>>29985625
But the algae shows no sign of having eyes or being alive or anything and the anchor's compass which is made to look like the eye kinda tricked us. But I guess that's the point, to trick us.

So that's why I'm having a hard time believing he algae is the Pokemon.

>Skorupi is not a Bug-type
Get out
>>
>>29985703
Not very different from Parasect being the mushroom instead of the lifeless husk if you think about it.
>>
>>29985719
Oh yeah, I forget it's Bug-type before it evolves to Drapion.
>>
>>29985184
Ah, yes, of course, how could I have forgotten the Wood type that exists for exactly this purpose?
>>
>>29985529
